SOCIAL SPOTLIGHT | Ted Smith

TS: It’s not playing but my best moment in a Blues shirt is getting promoted, 100 per cent. Obviously I wasn’t playing but I played a few games that season and felt a part of it and to go up the way we did via penalties at Wembley was amazing.

Q2: #AskTed How was your on and off pitch relationship with @Dan_Benltey1 and what did you learn? (via @PhilliipSpooner)

TS: Me and Bents get on really well. We’re quite similar characters and I still speak to him. I learnt a lot from him, obviously him being a young keeper coming through the academy as well it showed me that it’s possible to step into League One football and produce rock solid performances week-in-week-out and that I can follow in his footsteps.

Q3: #AskTed Do you have a favourite Teddy? (via @andyyoung77)

TS: I’ve never really been a teddy person to be fair so I can’t really answer that one

Q4: #AskTed Do you have any saves that particularly stick out in your memory that you have made? (via @PollsFL92Blues)

TS: The most important one would be the save against Rochdale a few weeks ago. We scored in the 90th minute and then they had the chance to equalise right at the end and I made the save so it would be that one.

Q5: As a goalkeeper, who do you look up to? #AskTed (via @jess_cheesman)

TS: David De Gea. I watched him since he was a kid at Atletico Madrid where he was playing as an 18-year-old which is crazy. The way he started his career in the Premier League and then turned it around to become one of the best in the world is amazing.
